Same with Express/Nord VPN sponsorships. Many people debunked the adverising BS they were spinning about blocking tracking when really it only masked a tiny subset.

As someone who studied infosec, those ads were infuriating. Now I just sponsor block it all because I’m beyond tired of it.

Really like Mullvad for that. They don’t pretend a VPN alone makes you invisible for tracking nor do they pretend it makes your browsing much more secure. They don’t do any BS sales either. You get what you pay for and they are very upfront about what you get (mostly ISP block and region lock bypass).

Haven’t seen a YT sponsorship for them yet either so that’s another plus in my book.
